Dual Wield Slo Mo Bug

Post » Tue Jun 26, 2012 10:23 pm

So my character is just nearing level 41. Level 100 sneak and archery. Now, in terms of melee, the only thing he has going for him are the dual wield perks for One Handed, so dual wielding is what he does. It's ALL he does without a bow. So now I have this bug where if I have dual weapons out, if I swing the right handed weapon independently my character's swing animation is in ridiculously slow motion. Like, it takes him about 40 seconds to complete single swing with the right hand, no matter which two weapons he has equipped.

So my question is, does anyone know of a way to correct this bug? I have tried every single save for the character (each character gets 3 normal saves and whichever autosaves are available (for some reason I currently have like 4)). The ONLY save that works is one from when he had just reached level 39. As you know, when you get to higher levels like that, level ups don't happen very often, which means that a LOT of things happened between that save and the rest of them where my character is level 40 and beyond (in the most recent one the level up progress bar is so close to the edge you can't even see a gap). I NEED to fix this, or Bethesda needs to fix it. It's a very crippling bug to be ignored as it apparently has for the past several patches.

Anyone know anything about this that can offer some insight?
